This volume explores the legal issues and legal consequences
underlying relations between secular and religious authorities in
the context of the Christian Church, from its earliest emergence
within Roman Palestine as a persecuted minority sect through the
period when it became legally recognized within the Roman empire,
its many institutional manifestations in the East and West
throughout the Middle Ages, the reconfigurations associated with
the Reformation and Catholic/Counter-Reformations, the legal and
constitutional complications, and the variable consequences of
so-called secularization thereafter. The engagement of secular and
religious authorities with the law and the question of what the law
actually comprised (Roman law, canon law, national laws, state and
royal edicts) are addressed. Bringing together the work of a wide
range of scholars, this volume deepens our understanding of
interactions between the churches and the legal systems in which
they existed in the past and continue to exist now.
